Polls at Mac OS X Audio show 49% of users still perform music production
on PowerPC, which isn't supported by Snow Leopard, and 24% are still on
Panther or Tiger. There is no poll which tracks the combination of
PPC/i386 and OSX version.
Admittedly, these are tiny polls, in terms of the number surveyed, but it
seems like they would be statistically indicative of the music production
industry within some margin of error.
Upgrade fear is nothing knew though, these are busy people, and they often
use software that is no longer supported by the developers. If Apple are
going to remove parts of the OS that are historically essential for older
software to work, then the composer's trusted old plug-ins will be
completely unusable - so why fix stuff that isn't broken, they'll not
upgrade just yet. Different Endian save states would also be a concern for
many - will their old songs load at all?... .. .
I remember a lot of people were using Atari STs in their studio long after
the machine had died commercially.
